BMI: body mass index; FEV1: forced expiratory volume in 1 s; %pred: percent predicted; FVC: forced vital capacity; RV: residual volume; TLC: total lung capacity; DLCO: diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide; TAC: total airway count; LAA950: low attenuation area of the lung with attenuation values below −950 HU on full-inspiration CT; Pi10: the square root of the airway wall area for a theoretical airway with 10 mm internal perimeter. Significance of difference : p<0.05.
